After being silent for a while, Martha took the flashlight from Lin Feng again, and began to observe carefully on the wall. After a while, she got up and asked Lin Feng straightforwardly, "Which university are you an archeology enthusiast? It seems that the research on the city of skeletons is very profound.

How did I not know that an organization like yours existed? "

At this moment, Gasol quietly moved his steps, groping behind Martha in the dark, as if he wanted to do something.Seeing this, Candy coughed tactfully twice, attracting Martha's attention.

Jiang Fei is also a smart person. He immediately understood the intentions of the two accomplices, and began to move without leaving any traces, moving closer to Martha, so as to narrow the range of Martha's activities.

However, Lin Feng did laugh at himself and said, "It seems that we all need to be more honest, Miss Martha.

I've said so much, shouldn't you also let us know who our partner is?Aha, what university are you from?I have never heard of a Sanskrit scholar named Masha, but it just so happens that I know a few people from the Mirza family.

Which family are you from?Maybe we can also know if we are mutual friends again. "

Mirza is the surname of Martha's family. This is the information she revealed when she introduced herself before.And Lin Feng's so-called acquaintance with a few "people from the Mirza family" is completely a lie to deceive Martha.

It's all because when Lin Feng mentioned Martha's full name just now, he caught a trace of abnormal expression on the other side, and when Martha was deep in the city of skeletons, Lin Feng felt vaguely caught by the weird attitude of the group of archaeological students towards her. What clues, so such a temptation was issued.

Sure enough, when she heard what Lin Feng said, Martha's momentum suddenly weakened a lot. She retorted timidly, "I am proficient in the languages ​​of six countries. I have been reading Sanskrit documents since I was a child. It is not surprising that I am proficient in Sanskrit, and I I'm a teaching assistant at the Department of Archeology, University of New Delhi, and I..."

Lin Feng interrupted Martha very forcefully, and said, "What does this mean? I don't question your language ability, but a teaching assistant questions my research results and my identity. Is it inappropriate?"

"My father is the great Lamore!"

Immediately, his expression was slightly excited, but soon his eyes dimmed, as if he remembered something he didn't want to mention.

Lin Feng looked stunned, but he just let out a long 'oh', seeing that Martha didn't continue to say anything.

Perhaps feeling the pressure, Martha choked up a little. She whispered, "Yes, my father is the great Lamo, but I... am a lowly illegitimate daughter..."

No wonder, no wonder the students didn't want to talk to Martha.

You must know that India's caste system is a very old feudal system. Under this system, discrimination is very serious.

They classify people into high and low according to different occupations, which is passed down from generation to generation and will not change for a lifetime.

The four largest castes are the first-class monks, the second-class princes and nobles, the third-class merchants, the fourth-class farmers, and the lower untouchables.

Although the Indian government now clearly stipulates the abolition of this caste system, in some underdeveloped areas, this problem is still very prominent and serious.

The lowest class of 'untouchables', very low in social status, they have no right to own land, eat with others, enter temples, etc.

Chapter 98 In-depth

According to the regulations in India, if the boss prevents the employees from living an X life for a month because of work, it is illegal.

So even for some special workers who need to stay in the field for a long time, the boss will force them to take vacations from time to time. Even in India, a country that is open to cheating, the boss brings X service workers to the construction site to comfort the employees. , can be done.

Generally speaking, archaeological work requires a long time in the wild, and life is very lonely.

But archeology is not like building a house. At worst, the construction period will be later, and you can rest when you need it.You must know that archaeology has reached certain critical moments, but it cannot be interrupted at all.

Therefore, the famous archaeologist, that is, the "great Lamo" in Martha's mouth, said that a woman of a lower caste stayed by his side and took care of him in daily life.

Unexpectedly, when the archaeological work was over, the woman was pregnant.

However, Lamo did not abandon the child, he took Martha in, but because of social customs, he did not dare to officially recognize Martha's status.

That's how Martha grew up day by day. Although she received Lamo's education, she still had no social status.

Before Lamo died, he used his personal connections to arrange Martha to be a teaching assistant at the university. Martha's knowledge was sufficient for the job.

But her position is always in an awkward position.

Moreover, after Lamo's death, Martha's brothers and sisters were not willing to bear the cost of Martha's marriage at all. Besides, it was very difficult for an illegitimate daughter like Martha to find someone to marry.

After all, those of higher caste are not willing to marry her, and those of lower caste, Martha is not willing to marry either.

So after Lamo died, Martha was kicked out of the house by her brothers and sisters. Fortunately, Lamo had enough prestige in the academic world, and the school didn't dare to expel Martha.

However, Martha's life at school was getting more and more difficult.

After listening to Martha's cry, Lin Feng took out a tissue for her and said, "I'm sorry for touching your privacy. But since you are so honest, I also admit that we are a group of explorers, not archaeologists.

Strictly speaking, we are not here for archaeology, nor for any treasure. We are here to witness a great discovery. How about it, are you willing to help us? "

Martha took the tissue, pointed into the darkness, and said, "According to the meaning engraved on the stone wall, there should be two lifting passages here, one of which is huge enough to lift the 'Car of Life', while the other is much smaller , is just a channel for daily delivery of goods.

We're on the Freight Access side right now, look, the explosion has destroyed this access so badly, are we looking for the 'Car of the Gods' lift?

According to the records, it should be very spacious there, and it is relatively easy to reach the underground. "

Lin Feng was silent for a while, and said, "The lifting passage of the 'Car of the Gods' is in the center of the nuclear explosion. The nuclear bomb should have exploded in this passage, completely destroying this passage. Otherwise, with the power of the nuclear explosion, how can we Wouldn’t even the city be razed to the ground?”

Martha thought for a while, wiped away the tears on her face, and said, "Please give me another flashlight, I want to take a good look at this place."

Lin Feng immediately took out a headlamp from the backpack behind him and handed it to Martha.

Unknowingly, Gasol, who came behind Martha, was also in a state of tension. He stepped forward in two steps, picked up the tear-wiping tissue that Martha dropped on the ground, and put it in a sealed storage bag.

This move alarmed Martha. He looked at Gasol and asked puzzledly, "Sir, why did you put away the tissues like this?"

Gasol said with a blank expression, "We are living in a prehistoric era. We cannot leave any trace of modern things and destroy the history here."

Martha was shocked when she heard the words, and said with relief, "Ah, gentlemen, just now you said that you didn't come for the treasure. I didn't really believe it, but now I finally believe it!

Come on, please grow old with me, and let me lead you into the prehistoric world, or the world of gods—the City of Sumeru! "
